CONDITIONS  OF  SALE. 


This  is  a bona-fide  public  sale,  for  prompt  cash  settlement,  and  irrespon- 
sible persons  who  are  not  sure  whether  they  can  pay  for  what  they  bid  on, 
are  asked  not  to  bid.  The  cataloguer  has  taken  special  pains  to  describe  each 
lot  accurately.  Errors  will  be  corrected,  but  he  reserves  the  sole  right  to  de- 
cide upon  any  claims.  These  are  the  only  conditions  under  which  bids  will 
be  received. 

Coins  and  medals  are  sold  at  so  much  per  PIECE,  and  no  lot  will  be  sep- 
arated. The  auctioneer  will  accept  any  bid  up  to  50c.,  then  5c.  up  to 
$2.50,  when  10c.  advance  must  be  bid,  up  to  $10.00,  when  no  advance  under 
25  cents  will  be  accepted.  If  there  are  5 pieces  in  a lot  and  you  wish  to  pay 
$5.00  for  the  entire  lot,  then  bid  $1.00. 
lot,  then  bid  $1.00. 

Auction  sales  are  strictly  for  cash.  Parties  unknown  to  me  and  bidding 
for  the  first  time,  must  give  bank  or  other  reliable  reference,  or  their  bids 
will  not  be  executed. 

Forward  your  bids  as  early  as  possible,  as  thousands  of  bids  have  to  bo 
entered.  Do  not  make  ridiculously  low  bids,  such  as  10c.  and  15c.  on  foreign 
silver  coins  worth  several  times  over  as  bullion.  Write  your  bids  plainly, 
with  a pen  if  practicable. 

Where  the  number  of  pieces  in  a lot  is  not  given  after  the  description, 
there  is  but  one  piece  in  the  lot. 

Be  sure  you  bid  on  the  lot  you  wish  to  buy. 

All  coins,  etc.,  are  genuine  unless  otherwise  described. 

My  charge  for  executing  bids  will  be  5 per  cent.  No  charge  made  for 
bidding  except  for  lots  actually  purchased.  Remit  by  money  order  or  New 
York  draft. 

We  will  send  a printed  list  of  the  prices  realized  for  the  three  days' 
sale,  for  $1.00,  cash  to  be  sent  in  advance. 

If  any  further  information  is  required  as  to  valuation  of  lots,  or  how  to  bid, 
please  write  the  cataloguer,  Thomas  L.  Elder.

notes  are  on  India  paper,  others  on  fibre.  In  several  cases 
the  impression  left  by  the  plate  is  visible,  indicating  the

NOTE. 

The  year  1911  will  be  a notable  one  at  the  Elder  Auction 
Rooms.  A fine  sale  of  Ancient  and  U.  S.  Coins  for  the  second 
Friday  in  January.  A Grand  Sale,  probably  second  only  to  the 
Mougey,  is  booked  for  the  second  week  in  February,  probably 
Thursday,  Friday  and  Saturday.  Announcement  later.
